Gynecomastia
A reconstructive surgical procedure to reduce the
size of enlarged male breasts.
Before surgery you will have a complete medical
checkup to rule out any curable medical cause of your enlarged breasts.
Obesity, impaired liver function, excessive use of alcohol or marijuana,
estrogen containing medications and anabolic steroids can all contribute
to gynecomastia. If any of these conditions are detected, they must be
corrected before surgery can be performed. Overweight men are encouraged
to diet and exercise prior to their surgery.
Your surgeon will make an incision under your breasts or around the areola
(the dark skin around the nipple). Liposuction is usually the treatment
of choice to remove these excess localized fat deposits. Persistent excess
glandular tissue, fat and skin can be surgically removed from around the
areola and from the bottom and sides of the breasts to create a new smaller
breast contour if liposuction is not indicated.
Swelling and bruising are normal and will subside over the next few weeks.
You will need to wear an elastic bandage or pressure garment as your breasts
heal. Scarring is usually minimal and will fade with time. You should
avoid direct sun exposure for six months.
